You are extremely aware of yourself and the impression you make on others. The spotlight is on you, and this is reflected in a sense of drama about your life.

Basically you are a warm-hearted person, endowed with a sense of humour and fun and with a natural ability to liven up any gathering.

Your appetite for life inclines you towards activities which give you a solid sense of who you are.

Creative pursuits, romance, and involvement with children are all important areas of interest.

You are the kind of person people notice, even to the point of seeming self-centred.

Partnerships can be affected by your inertia as regards the need for renewal and change. When your self-worth is reflected by inner values which can never be lost, you become a tower of strength for yourself and others.

Other things being equal you can build a wall of security around your loved ones. However you may have rather fixed ideas and principles, and you rarely allow yourself to be influenced.

Saturn was in Taurus in the years 1939-42 and 1969-72. At this time there was a strong refocusing on economic resources and the values in society.

This will also be a central issue for you in your professional life, and you will find yourself struggling hard to attain the economic stability which can make you feel secure.

You have the capacity to administrate resources in one way or another, and you will pull hard, along with your generation, to create foundations for economic growth.

Your work - which tends to dominate your waking hours - brings less and less satisfaction, and an existential crisis or spiritual experience will lead to a revaluation of how you can best use your time.

There will be a reorientation from a planned existence to one in which you are more open and flexible.

Spiritual, artistic or creative interests are given priority, and this gives you a new sense of meaning.

This transition process may involve a sacrifice of some sort, and this sacrifice brings a refinement of the soul.
